        "content": "<p>The Fire and Rescue Service (Disdamkar) of Bandung Regency, West\nJava, successfully extinguished a bushfire that had the potential to\nspread after deploying six fire engines.<\/p>\n<p>Head of the Firefighting Division at Disdamkar Bandung Regency, Asep\nBintang, stated in Bandung on Monday that six units were immediately\ndeployed from the outset as a precautionary measure against the rapid\nspread of flames at the scene.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor your information, we launched six units at once. Because there\nwere concerns about very rapid propagation, we launched six units from\nthe Soreang Headquarters and the TKI Post,\u201d Asep said.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that officers received the fire report at around 4:45\np.m. Western Indonesian Time. After several hours of firefighting\nefforts, the flames were finally extinguished and no longer had the\npotential to spread.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe indication is that this was scrubland, so it took quite a long\ntime. We received the report at 4:45 p.m., then handling was carried out\nuntil the fire was finally extinguished,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Asep added that the extinguishing process was carried out in an\nintegrated manner with the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD),\nparticularly for handling the affected area.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn handling this, we cooperated with the BPBD regarding the area\ncoverage from the BPBD team,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Disdamkar Bandung Regency urged the public not to conduct open\nburning, especially during the dry season, as it risks triggering land\nfires that can spread rapidly due to dry vegetation conditions.<\/p>",
